If I worked on the set of Arrow, I would never get
anything done.

They'd never do a Batman since he's a major film property, but I half-suspect that they'd be more amenable to Batgirl or even Nightwing. The problem in Nightwing's case is name recognition since he's less known (by that name anyway) than Batgirl.

Arent they making a black lightning show? I'm sure Nightwing would do just fine

There's no guarantee that the Black Lightning show will actually succeed plus, more importantly, you're overlooking that Black Lightning is getting the show largely because they're trying to reach a more diverse audience. The success of Static Shock showed that relatively minor black superheroes *can* work incredibly well on tv. Plus NFI's Luke Cage has helped pave the way there.

And, not for nothing, but Black Lightning looks like it's going to be great. It's the first live-action DC show I've been hyped for in a while. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZpJeuXo2CY

I'll watch Black Lightening but why couldn't they give an Asian a show? Black characters are popping up all over now, but Asians are still underrepresented. Maybe after this one, they could do a Katana show? I'd watch that

The fact that you just tried to name an Asian superhero and came up with Katana is why we don't have shows featuring Asian superheroes.
